    Procedure or whatever.

    BENN HAS PISSED DIRTY TWICE.

    He has drugs in his system twice.

    Benn also now saying he didn't tear up his license? Where was the whole "DO ONE" to the board.

    The 280 page document is actually a 40 page document? **** me.

    It's just fcking clear cut signs of guilt. Contacting Simon Jordan for an off the record chat instead of doing what every boxer has done in recent history and face the board. Like what the fack are they playing at when they expect sympathy and to treat Con Bent innocent until proven guilty when they keep trying to play around BBBofC/UKAD rather than face them.

    Jordan sounds like a guy who now realises Benn isn't guilty.

    I'll tell the DVLA to "do one" next time my road tax expires, and see what their view is - I'm going to guess they think I've deliberately given it up... (can't tear up a thing you buy online!)

    Jordan sounds like a guy who has been manipulated big time.

    That's my take as well. Very disappointed if we see a movement away from his long held stance.

    Yup.
    Does he still stand by his remarks regarding "Strict Liability" as he was adamant it was the case.

    May well be a case of trying to keep some viewers listening - the story has gone very,very stale and people have switched off to it. Try and give the YouTube clips a new headline and maybe it gets a few clicks coming in about a boxer that hasn't even won a British title

    In Benns defence he is the only professional athlete in the history of sport to eat an occasional egg.

    So this really strange genetic anomaly falling on a boxer after eating 3 eggs in Spain, on two separate occasions is just outrageously unlucky.

    It's so unfortunate that Benn had publicly said so many things on multiple occasions that were not true at any stage.

    And now people are remember the things he categorically told us were true at the time he said them.

    I feel bad for the guy

    I read Benns statement re his license and it clearly says he let it lapse and if the board doesn't let it lapse he renounces it.

    He then told piers morgan that the board can do one.


    I don’t have to be licensed by the board. I don’t plan on fighting in Britain any time soon.

    He said his old man tore up his license back in the day.

    I agree. I'm sure everyone on this forum has a lot of sympathy for such a clean athlete as Conor Benn.

    Maybe Conor Benn is the victim of character assassination ?

    He’s surprisingly easy. He was dead against Qatar having the WC until he went out there and played Padel with Nasser Al-Khelaifi, then he was full of praise.
